Congratulations to @WHLHurricanes defenceman @cotton272001, selected 132nd overall by the @DetroitRedWings! #NHLDraft pic.twitter.com/SvogUuB1yA— The WHL (@TheWHL) October 7, 2020
Cotton is, like any middle round player, a project. He’s totally willing to put in the effort to succeed and apparently has those offensive instincts and intuitions that you just can’t teach…but he’s only a year out from previously having less than 20 points as an 18 year old— Sarah Lindenau (@Lindy72) October 7, 2020

Red Wings at 132 take bombing overage defender Alex Cotton. Point production just exploded this season. Lots to like and a good gamble. pic.twitter.com/7qXlMN3t9a— Steve Kournianos (@TheDraftAnalyst) October 7, 2020
